FAQs
What is ponte fabric?
Ponte is a double-knit fabric that is thicker and more structured than standard jersey, providing a smooth finish and excellent durability.
Does the dress have stretch?
Yes, the ponte knit contains elastic fibers that offer a comfortable, flexible stretch while maintaining the garment's shape.
Can I machine wash this dress?
Yes, it is generally machine washable on a gentle cycle, though it is recommended to use a garment bag to protect the metal snaffle trim.
Is the midi length suitable for shorter heights?
The midi length is a classic silhouette, but depending on your height, it may fall at a different point on the lower leg. You can check the dress length measurements against your own for a precise estimate.
How do I choose the right UK size?
Use a measuring tape to check your bust, waist, and hip measurements against a standard UK size chart to ensure the best fit for this structured dress.
Troubleshooting
Fabric appearing wrinkled after storage
Steam the garment lightly on a low setting or hang it in a steamy bathroom for a few minutes to allow the natural weight of the fabric to pull out wrinkles.
Hardware trim feels loose
Check the back of the trim fasteners inside the garment; if they are snagging, ensure they are pressed flat against the fabric.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your dress looking its best, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Due to the snaffle hardware, it is recommended to wash on a gentle cycle inside a mesh garment bag to prevent snagging. Always check the internal garment tag for specific temperature recommendations.
- Drying: Air dry the dress on a hanger or lay it flat to maintain the shape of the fabric and protect the trim. Avoid tumble drying, as the high heat can damage the elastic fibers in the ponte knit.
- Storage: Store hanging to prevent wrinkles. Ensure the dress is clear of other items with sharp hooks or clasps that could catch on the metal snaffle trim.
- Sizing: The dress follows standard UK sizing. Consult the size chart if you are between sizes, as the structured nature of the ponte fabric provides less 'give' than thinner jersey materials.
